Birthday time: Akhlaque feels great to share birthday with Charlie Chaplin, Narayani down with viral

Lively and bubbly Narayani Shastri (last seen in Phir Subah Hogi) and handsome hunk Akhlaque Khan (Na Bole Tum Na Maine Kuch Kaha season 2) are celebrating their birthdays today (16 April). Sadly, Narayani, who can brighten up your dull life with her sweet smile and simplicity, is down with viral and resting at home. Sighed Narayani in a choked voice, “Well, I have no plans for today as I am down with bad viral. I am having cough, cold and fever. It’s been two days that I am on bed rest. So I don’t think I will be able to celebrate my birthday today.” “But my mom and my dear friend Shveta (Salve) surprised me with a cake last night which was really sweet of them,” she added. How do you feel on getting a year older today? “Since childhood, it has never bothered me on growing old. It’s a fun day and I believe in enjoying it.” Talking about Akhlaque, he feels great to share his birthday with the late Charlie Chaplin. He shared, “I am a big fan of Charlie Chaplin and he is my inspiration. In fact in my first ever stage show, I acted like Charlie and also won a prize for it. I am lucky that I share my birthday with him.” So how are you celebrating your birthday? “Last night there was a cake cutting ceremony at my place. Today I went out for lunch with Roopal (Tyagi) who had brought a cake for me. Though I am shooting this evening, it feels great to work on a birthday,” he replied. What about gifts? “I have received cakes, T-shirt and a book,” the actor quipped. Do you feel bad if someone forgets your birthday? “Yes, I do. In fact I keep taunting them until they plead and say sorry to me,” he observed. We wish Narayani speedy recovery and a wonderful day ahead to Akhlaque!!
